Validity of IELTS for Tier 2

Post by Sam4you » Thu Jul 01, 2010 12:06 pm

Dear all,

sorry to come back with another question:

Is it true that the IELTS certificate is only valid for 2 years? also is there a minimum score that is required in IELTS for Tier 2 general application?


Kindly advise

Sam

As i am aware of IELTS exam has 2 different versions. One of the exam version is known as General Training exam and 2nd Type of IELTS exam known as Academic. I suppose for Tier-2 visa General Training version exam would be sufficient and i hope some one clarify this please here.

Kokaka,

I think General training or Academic is fine.
